5IN5 Foundation
The 5in5 alliance is built around a simple idea: many governments and funders are eager to improve learning outcomes, but few models have demonstrated that they can produce measurable gains at scale, especially in the most low-resource environments. 5in5 aims to close this gap by identifying delivery models with strong evidence of impact, supporting their adaptation in government systems, and using catalytic philanthropy to unlock larger pools of public finance to the expand reach of effective education programs globally.
